  1. Of course there are reasons for us to lose some Big 12 games. You are dealing with young men in their late teens and early 20s. Nothing is more volatile. You mitigate that volatility by making smart decisions with the things you can control. Is Sark adapting to the way college football has changed? Are other coaches doing a better job with those new variables? If we lose to Baylor (and, especially if we lose to Baylor and lose our bowl game) then Sark really needs do some things this offseason that he failed to do in the previous 2 offseasons.
  2. The committee has stressed that a conference title carries a lot of weight. I know a lot of people think a 1-loss Michigan would get in over a 1-loss USC or Clemson that is a conference champ but I disagree.
  3. I don't care who wins. I just want to see a close game decided by a really bad call.
  4. I think we have a great chance to go 8 and 4 and then win our bowl game and be 9 and 4. I truly never thought that would happen and I was wrong. Sark exceeded my expectations.
  5. Of course not. But he should be.
  6. Fuck no.....and fuck you. This isn't just a coaching problem. This is also a personnel problem on both lines. I haven't bitched for 200 days. I've been right for 200 days.
  7. The Hurricanes won 4 national titles in an 8-year span because there has never been anything to do in Miami. If only we could be so lucky.
  8. It was very mean of you to post this. Your are correct, but pointing out that some coaches can quickly improve their team via the portal is very upsetting to Hookem2147 and others on this board. Why are Sark and these posters impervious to the truth? That is God's own private mystery.
  9. This is 100% true. It is also very upsetting to a significant number of posters on this board.
  10. ....and some people still can't figure out why we turn 1st half leads into 2nd half losses.
  11. If we finish the regular season 8-4 and win our bowl game this season has to be considered a huge success.
  12. This isn't 1987. Players can be bought now. Sark had 2 off-seasons. Any depth issues he didn't address are 100% on him.
  13. Our o-line personnel is substandard - Sark's fault. Ewers is regressing - Sark's fault. Receivers dropping catchable balls is not on Sark.
  14. Actually, it was the guy I responded to who brought up the "OL portal." I posted on this board after last week's win. I will post here after we (hopefully) beat Kansas. Also, everyone notices you didn't counter what I said. You just chose to personally attack me. I hope it made you feel better.
  15. I can't say with certainty it would have changed things. However, I wish Sark would have tried. Coming in to this season, every o-lineman on our roster fit in to one of 2 categories: #1) They have proven that they suck & #2) They were true freshman. We didn't need All-Americans. We just needed 1 or 2 players that are functional. It doesn't matter. Sark is 100% committed to his way of doing things. Perhaps it will all come together in his 3rd year. In the meantime, I hope we find a way to beat Kansas on the road.
  16. If, behind the scenes, we could lock Urban in to a deal, would you be okay with firing Sark and hiring UM? If no, would losing to Kansas for a 2nd year in a row change your mind?
  17. TCU got a couple of o-linemen from the portal. I think their starting C is one of those guys. They will likely win the Big 12 this season. Baylor grabbed 2 o-line starters from the portal and won the conference last year. Kansas has brought in o-linemen from the portal will likely beat us for the 2nd year in a row. I do think we would be better if we had grabbed a starter or two for the o-line from the portal any of the last 2 off-seasons. I apologize if my desire to see Texas not suck offends you.
  18. 7-5 was always our ceiling because of Sark's approach. We were all allowed some unexpected optimism because we were fortunate enough this season to play the worst OU team to ever take the field at the Cotton Bowl in the history of ever. So, for that reason, if a miracle occurs and we win 3 of our last 4, we will be at 8-4. Sane people know this is extremely unlikely. I really want a winning season but I just don't know how we get 2 more wins.
